Hi,
I have five adult websites similar to TikTok, where users can upload videos and earn money. Nearly all the websites share the same content, but each has a different design and name. After returning from vacation, I found that one of my websites wasn’t working, while the other sites on the same server were fine. I checked the issue and discovered that I couldn’t access the admin panel for that site. When I reviewed my emails, I found that Hostinger had suspended my website the day before, citing "abuse."
I quickly realized it was likely due to a DMCA complaint. In the past two years, I’ve had similar complaints twice with older websites, but Hostinger usually issues a warning first, allowing me to delete the link. If they suspend the site, I delete the link, and they unsuspend it. However, this time, the agent told me they won’t unsuspend my site since it’s my third suspension. I explained that while I’ve had two suspensions, those were over eight months ago for different websites, which are now closed. This specific website had zero complaints until now.
I’ve been in this business for two years, so I understand how the DMCA system works. Usually, DMCA complaints come automatically from Lumen Database, and Google simply removes the URL. When I receive a warning, I typically remove the URL from the site or change the name for SEO purposes. I explained to the agent that Hostinger didn’t provide any proof of who made the complaint or what specific link was involved—there’s even a chance I own the content. The agent only provided one link, which I checked. It’s highly unlikely that this content is copyrighted. For videos, I avoid using names associated with OnlyFans models, and this video had a simple title like “A Walk in the Forest with My Dog.” It had only 100 views and had been hosted for nearly a year without issues on my other sites. The URL is still on Google, so there’s no issue with Lumen Database.
Additionally, all media is hosted on Backblaze, with Bunny CDN used for faster loading times. My current situation is that I have four other hosted websites on the same server, with one disabled. I also have two additional servers with Hostinger for non-adult websites, but I’m seriously considering moving everything away from them. This server costs $287.88 per year, and I strongly suggest avoiding Hostinger.
Logically, anyone could file three complaints against a Hostinger-hosted website, and they would remove it. I strongly suspect this complaint was filed by a competitor, as the website ranked very well for a particular keyword.
